U-boat men! Undefeated and spotless you lay down your arms after a heroic battle without equal.We remember in deep respect our fallen comrades,who have seled with death their loyalty to Fuehrer and Fatherland.
Comrades! Preserve your U-boat spirit,with which you have fought courageously,stubbornly and impertubably throughout the years for the good of the Fatherland.
Long live Deustchland!
